Is there no end to his generosity?

http://www.suntimes.com/output/quicktakes/cst-nws-qt22.html

Rush Limbaugh regarding criticism of his in-house store promotion to support our troops in time of war, in which Dittoheads can donate Rush 24/7 memberships to soldiers and sailors overseas by paying a reduced price of $49.95 each (down from $59.90):

"Whatever number of donations there are, I am matching them."

So for every membership that a Dittohead buys and donates, Limbaugh will buy and donate one, too.

QT apologizes for being part of the criticism.

It is a rare man who would reach into his pocket for that much money and put it in his other pocket.

1. Well, if we got 200 million Americans to donate $50...

Can Rush go on a diet of water and strofoam while he coughs up $1,000,000,000? I didn't know he was worth that much... Or will he not cough up the bil and just say he had? :D

3. Amazing. His saps pay $45 to HIM

He "donates" about $5 worth of paper and postage and pockets the $40. Then he donates another $5 worth of paper and postage and writes it off as a $45 donation on his taxes. Net profit to pigboy, $85 per sucker.
